Framed Print of Fountain at Cintra, near Lisbon, 1883. Creator: Unknown
Fountain at Cintra, near Lisbon, 1883. Travellers in Portugal, or those who sojourn only a few days at Lisbon, seldom neglect to visit this place, fifteen miles west of the city, amidst wild romantic scenery at the foot of the mountains, which Byron has described in a fine passage of "Childe Harold." It has some historical interest, too, even for Englishmen, as it was here, in 1808, that a military convention was signed, much to the public indignation at that time, allowing the French army of Marshal Junot, after its defeat at Vimiera, to retire with "the honours of war." Students of Portuguese and mediaeval history, as well as lovers of architecture and sculpture, will find more agreeable objects of contemplation in the grand remains of a romantic antiquity, the ruined Castle, the Moorish Palace, and the Monastery, with its fine old Church, decorated in a characteristic style of art. The fountain, however, shown in our Illustration, is adorned with comparatively modern work; but the figures of the Portuguese water-carriers, with their primitive cart drawn by a pair of mighty oxen, deserve notice for their picturesque quaintness, to which our Illustration does ample justice'. From "Illustrated London News", 1883. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
